Frère JacquesWhat is the literal translation of Sonnez les Matines. It seems to be an imperative but the translation I found was 'Morning bells are ringing' not ring the morning bells.

Unanswered questions and scoring.I understood that marks are not deducted for unanswered questions. However, I made no errors in a test but had 2 unanswered questions (1 in error) and I was deducted 0.6%. I should be working on B1 and B2 but because I am only 2% short of 100% in A1, I have been determined to achieve that level. Over time, I have done 12 tests with lots of ups and downs and am no nearer reaching 100%. It is much easier to progress at B1 and B2 than it is at A1!! Bien cordialement, Beverley

Pronunciation of final 'e' in feminineIn the recording examples of feminine endings which are said not to sound different almost all the feminine words are given a distinct (if very short) '-yuh' sound at the end. Is this purely to add emphasis or because they are ending a sentence, or is it actually a different sound?
